During the session «What’s New for Tiles and Toast Notifications», held on the last day (April 1) 2016 Build conference, Microsoft unveiled new features for live tiles and notifications. Some of them we have been told. In particular, the notifications will be synced to the cloud. Moreover, notification will learn to display images, avatars, application icons, and various interactive elements.

In addition to the above I should also add that Microsoft implements notification support Microsoft Edge (useful for web applications). In addition, as you can see in the image below, the icons store apps on the taskbar will receive the notification (for the implementation of the functions developers will need to add a few lines of code).

Along with all this, the company also plans to provide a counter notification icon the notification center in the system tray. The Action Center icon will be dynamic – it will show the icon of the application that sent the last notification.

All these innovations will be part of the update to Windows 10 Anniversary, which will officially be released this summer.
